If the Penguins come back and take the Atlantic Division, the Flyers will have but one man to blame: Logan Couture of the San Jose Sharks. Coming into the game 7 points behind the Flyers, the Penguins needed to salvage anything they could against the visiting San Jose Sharks. Just getting one point out of the game would be a huge improvement to the Penguins situation as being 6 points behind the Flyers (3 games) with is much better than being 7 points out (4 games). With just over a minute left, and up by a goal, Logan Couture had a chance to put the game out of reach with an empty net goal. Only instead of scoring, this happened.
The Sharks could not win it in the last minute and the game went to overtime. It does not matter that the Sharks would go on to win the game in awesome fashion in said overtime. The fact of the matter is the Penguins got a crucial Bettman point. The Penguins are now three games behind the Flyers instead of four because of Couture's inability to perform simple tasks to skate up to an empty net and put the puck in. So if it comes down to it, and the Penguins win the Atlantic Division by 1 point, there will be only one man worthy of your scorn in the NHL. Your potential 2010-2011 Philadelphia Flyers goat: Logan Couture, ladies and gentlemen!
I would share this with the FTF crew, but some of the women who comment there wouldn't understand the tongue-in cheek humor.
ReplyDelete@ 49er16: Hahahaha, if you tell them it is tongue-in-cheek they might get it. I'm glad you got it, though. ;-)
ReplyDelete@Justin: One of the girls is a puck bunny who has a crush on Couture. (I personally think he's one of the ugliest people I've ever seen.) The other girl Angy, you've probably seen her at BSH, is very sensitive to when anyone criticizes the Sharks even if it's a spur of the moment anger or tounge-in cheek humor.
ReplyDeleteSome very sensitive souls over there. Just proves once again why women shouldn't be on the internet. #sarcasm
Yeah, I've seen Angy her over there a few times. I think she likes us!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I enjoy talking to some girls on the internet. Especially when they talk about sports. ;-)
